Sorry, the catfish face is horrid. First thing that came to my mind when I saw it, even before seeing that Chaos so named it. Not too bad in black, horrendous in white. There's really no excuse for that when they hold title to the front-end on the early XK's, circa late 1990's. Perhaps one of the most beautiful front-ends ever fitted to an auto. But to each his own.

On the other hand....if catfish are so proud of this look...why are they bottom-feeders? and that in murky water, no less!!!

Looks amazing in black. A lot more car for the money than DB9.

I'm not overly keen on the front end as it looks too much like the GTR.

The "catfish face" and "bottom-feeder" comments reminds me of Jeremy Clarkson's description of the Spyker sports car:

"My only slight reservation, and it is only slight, is this grille, which makes the front of the car look like a fish. Not a Cod or a Shark, not a sort of swimmy one but more sort of a... bottom feeder. But then it is Dutch, and they like that sort of thing..."

Classic.

That car has much bigger problems than a bottom feeder grill, lol.





Who ever designed that horrible back end must of been on some serious drugs.

I think the Jags are classier than the Astons, which have gotten maybe a bit boy-racer.
